All 3 Pahalgam terrorists different from those whose sketches J&K Police had released: Report
In a shocking turn of events, The Indian Express has reported that the three terrorists involved in the Pahalgam attack are different from the ones whose sketches were released by the Jammu and Kashmir Police. The news has sent shockwaves across the country, raising questions about the efficacy of the police’s investigation and the intelligence agencies’ ability to track down terrorists.
The Pahalgam attack, which took place on August 8, left at least 10 civilians dead and several others injured. The terrorists, who were reportedly from Pakistan, stormed a tourist bus in Pahalgam, a popular tourist destination in South Kashmir, and opened fire on the passengers.
In the aftermath of the attack, the Jammu and Kashmir Police released sketches of three terrorists, claiming that they were the ones involved in the attack. However, according to a recent report by The Indian Express, the terrorists whose sketches were released are different from the ones who actually carried out the attack.
One of the terrorists involved in the attack has been identified as Suleiman Shah, who is reportedly the same individual involved in the Z-Morh tunnel terrorist attack. The Z-Morh tunnel attack, which took place in 2013, was a major terrorist strike that left several people dead and injured.
The investigation into the Z-Morh tunnel attack led to the arrest of JR Bhat, a co-accused of Suleiman Shah. Bhat was killed in a gunfight with security forces in 2019. During the investigation, police recovered a phone from Bhat’s belongings, which contained a picture of him with three other militants. This picture was reportedly used by the police to create the sketches of the terrorists involved in the Pahalgam attack.
However, it has now emerged that the terrorists whose sketches were released are not the same individuals who carried out the Pahalgam attack. This raises serious questions about the reliability of the police’s investigation and the intelligence agencies’ ability to track down terrorists.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is investigating the Pahalgam attack, has also reportedly found that the terrorists whose sketches were released are different from the ones involved in the attack. The NIA has recovered evidence from the scene of the crime, including a video footage, which suggests that the terrorists involved in the attack were different from those whose sketches were released.
The Pahalgam attack is just the latest in a series of terrorist strikes that have taken place in Jammu and Kashmir in recent years. The state has been plagued by militancy for decades, and the government has been struggling to contain the situation.
The police and intelligence agencies have been under fire for their handling of the Pahalgam attack, with many questioning their ability to track down terrorists and prevent such attacks from taking place. The release of the wrong sketches has only added to the criticism, with many calling for a thorough investigation into the matter.
The Pahalgam attack has also raised concerns about the security of tourists in Jammu and Kashmir. The state is a popular tourist destination, attracting thousands of visitors every year. However, the frequent terrorist attacks have led to concerns about the safety of tourists, with many calling for increased security measures to be put in place.
In conclusion, the revelation that the three terrorists involved in the Pahalgam attack are different from those whose sketches were released by the Jammu and Kashmir Police is a shocking development that raises serious questions about the reliability of the police’s investigation and the intelligence agencies’ ability to track down terrorists. It is imperative that the government and the security agencies take immediate action to prevent such attacks from taking place in the future and ensure the safety of tourists in Jammu and Kashmir.
